Measurement System

The BiTRONICS 70 Series Measurement System is an efficient, cost-effective substation automation solution for real-time monitoring and event recording. The BiTRONICS 70 Series Measurement System is a substation automation solution designed to satisfy AC network operators’ needs for real-time monitoring and event tracking. It is also an ideal system to help them protect their investments.

BiTRONICS 70 Series is composed of 4 variants:

  • GE Grid Solutions has discontinued sales of M571 & M572. As an alternative, please refer to DR60.
  • GE Grid Solutions has discontinued sales of M871 & M872. As an alternative, please refer to DR60.

Four main components

The BiTRONICS 70 Series consists of four component types – monitoring and recording IEDs, detached displays, firmware and software.

Common Firmware

All of the BiTRONICS 70 Series IEDs use a common firmware, therefore they have the same functionality, the only difference is the hardware variant selected (M571, M572, M871 or M872).

Improved operational security and reduced costs

The BiTRONICS 70 Series Measurement System enables pre-empting catastrophic events, and improves operational security. Other benefits include reduced investigative expenses, automation investments and life-cycle costs.

Sub-Station Communications

The BiTRONICS 70 Series Measurement System can communicate using IEC61850.
